Abstract

Optimizing a truss subject to vibration frequencies is a problem with high nonlinearity and computational cost. As a result, this issue necessitates the application of practical optimization algorithms. In this chapter, the Whale Optimization Algorithm is explored as a method for optimizing truss size within frequency constraints. It is compared to the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm and the Material Generation Algorithm. The findings of this study indicate that the WOA is a highly effective approach that can produce results that are equal to or better than those of other metaheuristics. In general, the WOA tends to outperform its competitors in this area.
